Newell

Day 2 of our wonderful senior trip : the most amazing part of our trip so far has been the Holocaust Museum.  We spent a very memorable hour and a half experiencing how life would have been during the Holocaust. 

This morning, we also went to the White House and Air and Space Museum.  Tonight were the Memorials, which were extremely profound, also.  The weather was colder and raining this morning, but as the day went on it stopped raining and warmed up a bit.     

 Newell Labor Day Shiny and Not-Quite-So-Shiny Antique Tractor and Car Show.

The show is Sunday, September 6 at the Newell City Park.  Registration is from 8:00-10:00.   The show is from 10:00-2:00.  No entry fee.  People choice car and tractor trophies will be presented.  Lunch will be available in the park, lunch proceeds will benefit the Newell Cenntennial Committee.

We park the tractors so they can leave when they need to go for weigh ins before the tractor pull. ALL types of antique cars are welcome, show quality or otherwise!

I am happy to report that we do have Centennial Chairmen. Mark Jarneke and Sean Carney have agreed to co-chair this committee. Some sub groups were formed last night and planning and research is underway. If you have ideas or suggestions or would just like to volunteer, please contact them. The next mtg. date is set for July 13th at the NVN Center at 6:00 p.m.

There is a City Wide Garage sale planned for June 27th. If you are interested in being on the map please call Kay Smeenk  456-2231 or stop by Newell Conoco. Maps will be available that morning at Newell Conoco.

Due to lack of interest in planning and lack of volunteers to work, the Newell Community Club is considering dropping the centennial celebration in 2010 and only planning regular Labor Day events for that year. 

As a last effort a meeting has been planned for June 29th at 6:00 p.m. at the NVN center. If no interest remains after this meeting there will be no Centennial Celebration in 2010. If you have questions or are interested in helping, please come and join us or call 456-2121.

Congratulations Mandi on being chosen to receive the Spirit of Sue award! You are a fantastic young lady.

The Lady Irrigators represented Newell well. Not only did they gain third place and only lose to the team that became the State Champions, two were chosen as All-tournament; Monica Deighton and Jordan Trohkimoinen. And we were so blessed and pleased to have Mandi Durch recieve the Spirit of Sue award. Congratulations girls! We love our Lady Irrigators.

Monica Deighton reached the goal of her 1,000th point in the game against Pine Ridge last night. And even though our Lady Irrigators were behind when the final buzzer sounded, we sure were proud of them. It must just be something about those maroon jerseys. Maybe we need new ones. Anyway, the fans were excited and planned to celebrate Monica’s achievement as testified by the two photos. There is one of the student fans holding up the numbers 1000 and Monica’s sisters and friends grouped together to mark the occasion with t-shirts made especially for the event. Monica we are proud of you.

Here are a coupld of photos to enjoy. A couple of small fans in Joe and John Jackson and a shot of Monica hitting that magic 1000! Enjoy. More tomorrow.
